Turning on word wrap

Post by RickB »

How can I turn word wrap on and off like in Microsoft Notepad?

Sometimes when I am editing text it is easiest if the words actually wrap

Zeus does not have a line wrap option similar to Microsoft Notepad.

Microsoft Notepad will wrap lines on the screen, but not add any carriage return, line feed to the file. You see evidence of this feature quite often in forums and in e-mails where the result is a single, very long line of text :)

The line wrap in Zeus does not work this way as it will insert a carriage return, line feed. In other words Zeus has a WYSIWYG line wrap option.

Hi Jussi,

A visual line wrap is good to have for knocking of the occasional note to someone. Having real CRLFs embedded is not real desireable because then when you copy the note into another application the CRLFs may not be where you wanted them, or you may not want them at all. Maybe I'll drop this in the suggestion box.

Love your editor!
